Only 3 eps watched so far, but I'm liking it a lot. Think this one might be a keeper.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Episode 8? They've only shown a 2 hour long first episode, and a 1 hour long second episode here in Canada...

Spoiler

Guess I'm going to have to stay out of here until I've finished the whole season...

WHAT. THE. FUCK!!!

The latest episode, episode 7...

WWHHHAATTT!!!!!!!!

That is easily one of the best twists I've witnessed. That is the first time something has happened in a show that has made me start rewatching the entire season from scratch to see if I can pick up on anything because FUCK I didn't see that coming... brilliant!!!!!!

I purposely avoid reddit tv threads for that very reason. It's good to go in fresh without the internetgalaticbrain spoiling it for me.

I suspected something was up but not that.

I have just finished the first season of this show, and I loved it. The main character plays so very very well.

I had figured out the big twist quite early, but that didn't in any way take away from my enjoyment of the show ^_^

I always loved well done unreliable narrators, and the hacking doesn't feel stupid. Though I wonder if a hacker would ever say "I hacked you!"

It fucking figures that some worthless fanbois would misspell the nickname of someone they imagine is a match for me. Nicodimas, you may get some unwanted attention in the next few hours, exhorting you to get into a scrap with me. It should be flattering and it is - a certain number of worthless fucks have a high opinion of you. Personally, I'm not bothered either way. I just think it's unfair of them to thrust you into this situation without checking with you first. That's how servants work - they work for you and when they stop working for you and try to use you to work for themselves, you need to bring the hammer down. In any case, I'd love a consequence-free scrap so let's do it - I dunno what we'd even be fighting about but I'm game because my favourite thing is fighting. Fair warning - I expect great things from you ^_^

Yes really. There were very few insufferable cunts here when I first signed up but it seems they have become the majority. Also, if you want to be taken seriously, do more than string two question marks together - it's lazy and only helps to prove my point. Say something ffs, don't just disapprove of things others have said. Grrr arrgh

Off the medication again Mal? Or did Hetan leave you alone and in charge for the week and you've watched everything on Netflix?

On Topic:
Seeing the love for this show, I might have to give it a shot.

Hmmm, doesn't appear to be on Australian Netflix, gee what a surprise.

Just finished the first season. What a weird and wonderful show this is! I shall definitely be continuing.

It's Amazon Prime in the UK too, I think they are helping find it or something so it won't be on Netflix...
